Anyone pick this one up yet? I RedBoxed it the other night. I had a lot of fun with it the couple of nights I had it but not sure I will buy it. Think of it as an RGP, meets a first person shooter meets an MMO. It feels like its something I would really have to put too much time in it to enjoy it fully and I’m really not a big fan of all the mini leveling up (shoes, gloves, chest armor ect). Sure it’s a goal to strive for and I know people really get into MMO’s, but I really just like jumping into a straight up team deathmatch and while you can do it with this game it’s a very confusing format when it comes to matchmaking and gametype and equal balance of skills and level.

What I really liked most about it was the coop missions. I imagine it would be a lot of fun with friends. There are couple of odd things though that frustrated me. While in a mission, there is no way to pause the game, you basically either stand there and die, or back out of the game. The other thing I didn’t like is that the mission is balanced for the number of people playing which makes sense, but when dumb people join in and/or drop out, you have a lot harder battle on your hands. I’d like to be able to do a private solo mission to keep out the riff raff.

From things I’ve read and seen, they expect this game to be the biggest of the year with over $500 million sold or ordered already.

If you like Halo, I think you would really like this game, it feels a lot like Halo.

I would be out a morning or two if I still had the tag. Afternoons must be a sauna in a blind. We hunted in shorts and t-shirts in early May and were still hot when afternoon temps reached around 82 - 85 degrees.

Well wondering if anyone is going to be out in the heat for the last turkey season. I was out last night and just needed a nice strutter to get a bit closer. I moved the blind to his entry/exit point. He didn't want to follow the hen when she walked by my blind twice. He stayed on the high ground in the field. Hoping for better results.

Game 6 of Caps and Lightning was fun to watch, even though the lightning got shut out. Ove was a beast, really fun to watch him play like that.
Good for the Caps, I think they can nuetralize the speed of Vegas, they have some hard hitters on the team. Hopefully Ove can kiss the cup.

Well this has been a tough season so far with this odd weather. Late winter jump into 80+ degrees. It will be interesting to see what these next 4-5 days of 80's to 90's do to them?
Did find a few Morel's and some nice small tender Pheasant backs last time out.

For the 2018 Minnesota Fishing Opener we went up to Lake Vermilion in search of Walleyes. The morning started off slow for us so we changed up the tactics and it resulted in a livewell full of walleyes, a few Slot fish and a new Personal Best!
